50 Free Plugins & Components for Extending Bootstrap

Bootstrap is already pre-packaged with a huge selection of useful tools, extensions and components, and is more than enough to kick-start most web design or web application projects. But there will be times when the bundled basic components are not quite enough for what you need. That is where this post comes in. We have assembled 50 extensions, plugins, addons and components that will allow you to extend Bootstrap even further.

Rather than group the extensions and components into relevant categories, as we usually would, we have instead opted to create an A-Z listing, which should make it much easier for you to find the particular addon you are looking for.

Everything you could need is included below, from buttons, breadcrumbs, and calendars, to tree menus, video players, and WYSIWYG editors. If you feel we have missed anything, please do include it in the comments below.
